I trust you with my faith

With my life

I trust that you know best

I trust that you see the things I don’t

The bigger picture

I pray for good days and good memories

I pray for lessons and challenges

But I don’t pray for trauma

I don’t pray for a broken heart

I don’t pray to be stopped on the street by creeps

I don’t pray for prying hands or and stolen touches

I don’t pray to have the same bad things happen again and again

So why do they

I ask you to show me the lesson in it all

I ask you what I am doing wrong

I tell you i trust you

So please teach me how to escape this

But you let it play on repeat

Shattering my trust in you
